They lost me

I was in another room tonight when the first goal in this game was scored. When I heard the announcer and the roar of the crowd (it was on TeleFutura), I knew immediately it wasn't the US that scored it.

And now for some impenetrably pompous aftermath. The title of the following article should give you an idea of where it's headed. How anyone could intertwine today's US MNT young, inexperienced players in this tournament, acting as guests with the Bush administration's foreign policy is a bit beyond me.
